1) Low Fat (large bag) 180 cal/5 fat/6 fiber or old program 2 points and new program 3 points

ACT II:

1) 94% Fat-Free 250 cal/unknown fat/unknown fiber or old program and new program at least 5 points
2) 96% Fat-Free 200 cal/2 fat/10 fiber or old program 2 points new program 3 points
3) Light 250 cal/10 fat unknown fiber or old program and new program at least 6 points
4) Natural Light 240 cal/8 fat/8 fiber or old program 4 points and new program 5 points
5) Kettle Corn (both regular and buttery) 480 cal/36 fat/6 fiber or old program 11 points and new program 12 points (they do not list how many cups popped so I used as a guide O/R)

*I use .33 fat grams as if it is less than .5 grams the FDA regulations indicate it can be listed as zero.

#I use .5 fiber grams as if it is less than 1 gram the FDA regulations indicate it can be listed as <1 gram.

As of 2-3-01 the points have been updated for ORVILLE REDDENBACHER, POP SECRET and JOLLY TIME.

As for the fiber, it states that it contains less than 1g per 1 cup popped. I counted it as .5g per cup which gives 3g fiber per bag.

This actually calculates out to 2.3 points per bag using Dotti's calculator set to "Exact Points" mode. If you set it to "Half Points" mode, it comes out to 2.5 points. Using the "Whole Points" mode gives the 2 points.

I want to add something. PopSecret has come out with 100 Calorie Pack Popcorn (and their labeling is very easy to read) so the whole package of it is 2 points and it is a 'cute' snack size and tastes better than Orville's in my opinion.

I thought that WW magazine had ads for the Jolly Time healthy Pop that had a little cartoon lady on it, and the ad said only 2 points for the whole bag? I usually eat the whole bag and count it as 2 and spray it with butter flavor Pam cooking spray. Maybe 5-7 seconds worth with a few shakes in between. I sometimes re-spray the bottom part if it needs it for another 4-5 seconds. I count this as 3 points. I know that amount of spray has to be counted, so that is why I count the bag as 3.

I have this probably 4 evenings out of the week, and I'm still losing. Any advice if this is OK, or if I should count it as more?

I guess I am confused too because my WW leader said that any bag of 94%ff popcorn was figured to only 2 points because of all of the unpopped kernels that had to be counted out of the totals. All of us at our WW meetings only count that as 2 for a large bag.

I wish ACT II would make low fat Kettle Korn in the mini bags, I love ACT II Kettle Corn but I know it is high, high in points, SIGH. I don't like Orville's 94% FF version.

Thanks, I'm going to have to look for that one. I love the 100 Calorie line, so easy.
